Singapore's ECS to distribute Oracle, IBM products in China

World IT Report, Apr 9, 2003

Singapore-based ECS holdings announced that its Chinese arm, Pacific City International (PCI), has won the sole distributorships for selected IBM and Oracle products in China.

PCI will distribute IBM's Pentium 4 personal computers and notebooks, and Oracle's range of database products for NT Servers. The market demand for both sets of products is expected to exceed $120million annually from 2002 onwards, said an ECS press statement.

PCI, which is 51 per cent owned by ECS, has been a distributor for Oracle china since 1998. Sales of Oracle products are expected to rise between 30 and 50 per cent in the country, ECS said.

Distribution of IBM products, which are becoming popular in China, contributes more than 15 percent to PCI's total turnover. That percentage is expected to increase to more than 20 per cent next year with the new distributorship appointment. -(World IT Report)
